The aerobic and anaerobic threshold values the ability to take up oxygen
can be determined quickly and exactly. After the training you can see
exactly when the footballer will be completely fit. This complex but still
simple and fast method of taking the pulse provides the coaches precise
basic information which makes it possible to maximalize individual
conditioning.
General information.
Before the tests you must put down:
1. The sportsmans training activity during
the proceeding period.
2. Weight
3. Height
4. Age
5. Sex
Regular use.
One of the important criteria of the pulse control system is regular use.
After an optimum time interval (8-10 days) regular use gives an accurate
picture of the sportsmans adaptability in the long run and his reactions
to different methods of trainings. The answer to regular trainingload is
necessary for the program to assess exactly the sportsmans ability to
regenerate.
Regular training stimulus improves the footballers condition, the
improving physical activity has a positive effect on the footballers ability
to regenerate (4-6 weeks).
Recording these data with the help of the Polar ProTrainer 5 or Polar
Team Pro softwares makes the evaluation of the players more precise.
Regular following of the changeable personal data:
1. VO2 max.
2. Weight
3. Height
4. Anaerobic and aerobic threshold
Continuos evaluation in case of any change the different parameter must
be recorded if possible the control assessment should be done at the
same time of the day, under similar conditions.

The more trained the person is, the faster his heart rate adopts to the
change of speed. This is one of the most important physiological bases
of the successful game. The cardiovascular adoption to the changes of
the rhythm of the game is one of the bases of the good condition.
The break of heart rate is identified by the experienced examiner with his
eyes. The rate of breaking of the heart rate is not equal to the lactic acid

Training load/recovery.
Evaluation of the training load. It measures precisely and valuates
numerically, by how big load the player worked at the given training or
match.
The preparation of the individual profile is necessary to the precise
evaluation:
- Maximal value of VO2.
- Anaerobic and aerobic thresholds.
- Maximal heart rate.
- Weight and height.
- Age.
The program is able to determine not only the instantaneous training
load value, but also it compares the performance of the players. In terms
of a given training or several days or weeks.
This way the review of the longer-term circles and the optimal training
work is possible.
At least 8 days of continuous training control are necessary to that the
program could determine the regeneration period precisely, concludable
from the heart rate reaction to the received load.
The summary of the earlier received measurement data is necessary to
the precise use of the training load evaluation system. This way the
trainer can use such a precise performance control in his daily work,
which provides the most modern and simplest usable help.
The practical application of the tests.
BR test: To be applied at the beginning and the end of the training
period. If there is an opportunity, it's good to perform it also in the last
period of the championship.
Duration: 20 minutes
Polar Fitness TesztTM: It's good to perform it 3-4 times a week. If the
player was previously injured or ill, or his physical performance declines,
it's good to perform it more often before the start of the trainings.
Duration: 5 minutes
Polar OwnZone test: It must be performed in the first days of the week
every week.
Duration: 5 minutes
Polar OwnOptimizerTM: It's good to perform it 3-4 times a week,
depending on number of the matches and intensity of the trainings.
Duration: 6 minutes
Training load/recovery: A continuous supervision of load, it does not
need individual time, the programs perform the evaluation.
The match.
The heart rate is the index of the intensity of the work. Its objectivity
emphasizes the importance of this method. If two players perform
completely the same intensity of work, the differences of their physical
fitness and shape may mean different load to their systems. The precise
judgment of the individual differences is one of the most difficult tasks of
the trainer's work. The heart rate and its perfect analysis assist the more
objective evaluation of the individual within the team and the precise
dosing of the individual training tasks.
A football player works in 70-80% with aerobic energy win and in
20-30% by anaerobic one during a match. The adult players perform high
intensity work once-twice in a minute. It is really short, it lasts a few
seconds only. But in every 3-4 minutes, the football player reaches 9095% of his maximal heart rate. It happens, that the dynamic period is
preceded by a mediate or high intensity work of 10-20 seconds. So the
effect of the work on the circulation is great.
The load is interval-like in majority of the match, where an intensive
section of a few seconds is followed by a significant reduction of the
tempo. The use of the musculature is great here.
The more excitable and dynamic the athlete is, the sooner he reaches
the target zone of the cardiac frequency and the better his regenerating
ability is, the sooner he is able to repeat with a high intensity.

The software analyses the recorded data on the basis of several points
of view. The graphic above provides a really detailed and precise
evaluation on the entire match. With the values of the cardiac frequency
among others the following values of the player can be observed:
- speed of regeneration of the player.
- his performance in the second half-time, especially in regards with the
high intensity sections and the heart rate resting due to this.
- number of the high intensity sections and proportion of its breakdown
and the duration of the sections.
- the maximum and minimum rate of heart rate, reached during the
match, etc.

Selection
The football player performs a high intensity, short and fast work 1-2
times a minute. The fast work itself lasts a few seconds only, but the fact,
how much time he spends in the anaerobic zone, is highly influenced by
the regeneration ability of the athlete. The faster restores the system the
processes of the energy to the aerobic level, the less lactic acid is
produced, improving the performance of the athlete this way. The
functional state of the heart, lung and the vascular system determine this
process. The effective aerobic functions and the great aerobic capacity
speed up the reload of the system. The heart rate of a well-trained
football player returns to the oxygen-rich performance of work fast after
such a short-term intensive section - in 25-30 seconds - and it provides
the oxygen supply of the system this way.
These high-intensity sections are those, which mostly influence the
functional performance despite that there are the least of them in
duration and frequency. They load the circulation and the musculature at
such a rate, that they become factors, which significantly influence the
match - in respect of the endurance.
These anaerobic zones are followed by intensive aerobic performance.
The well-regenerating player reaches the cardiac frequency of 130-150
in the active resting phrases during the match. Usually the cardiac
frequency does not sink below this rate. (Except, if the game is stopped
for a longer period of time, for example because of an injury). The heart
rate of the athlete reaches the value of approximately 150 and the direct
domain below it 8-10 times.
The cardiac performance above the value of 180 is highly determined by
the individual maximal loading ability of the player. One of the objective
indicies of this is the maximal heart rate. If the intensity of the
performance and the individual maximal heart rate of the player are not
proportionate, so the cardiac frequency of the athlete is unable to follow
the desired work intensity, it leads to the decline of the quickperformance and the decline of the intensity and frequency of the fast
repeats. Besides, the tired player is unable to perform the desired
technical and tactical task on the adequate level, either.
The duration of the high-intensity sections is short, in this interval, an
oxygen debt is generated in the system during this time, that has to be
balanced by the system during the active resting phrase. The heart rate
is unable to sink in the active section than in case of the passive
resting period, and due to the nature of the sport, it may repeat the highspeed work in several seconds.
It leads to the decline of its performance. Not only in conditional terms,
but also technically and tactically.
The performance, performed at a football match always must be
investigated as a complex and complete event. The sub-abilities affect
the summarized individual performance. The currently examined ability is
a specific approach of endurance - but in point of view of football a really
objective - based on the cardiac frequency.
This is a specific evaluation, its primer goal is the evaluation of the
endurance of the football player. It does not evaluate the technique and
tactics, however these elements determine the condition. The endurance
makes to the athlete possible to perform his technical, tactical and
speed work for a long time, with proper intensity and high quality.
